.WHERE are the *.deb files? ..Seems like the link leads to an empty github repository (files on github are gone) and on "dnscrypt.org" i find only some for compilation ...I guess i keep using the old ones then ....

Thanks tommyb., I've updated the first post in this topic to reflect that the tutorial is currently not usable due to the missing .deb files. Compiling from source should work (and is detailed on their website), but it's not high on my priority list to figure this all out right now. Might get around to it later

yes i have (using the instructions right above you on LM15 mate 64bit

Well it didn't work for me. Checked with Wireshark and only standard DNS traffic is appearing, nothing encrypted.

.Ok, but you get that openDNS welcome "checkmark"? In regards to wireshark: I'll check myself later, at this point everything is possible, but I only see 127.0.0.1 on netactviewer on the box which has dnscrypt installed "my" old way.You have edited your network dns to 127.0.0.2 as required? use port 443 instead of 53 and see what happens...I assume in my case all is fine - maybe somebody else can confirm: example (wireshark)419 52.637116000 80.254.76.194 208.67.220.220 UDP 288 Source port: 45553 Destination port:https425 52.925201000 208.67.220.220 80.254.76.194 UDP 460 Source port:https Destination port: 45553.I catch dns traffic that way on both boxes, indepently whether i used my method or the one above.

Enkouyami that's not a surprise. Please more carefully read the top of my first post in this topic:

Update Feb 8 2013: As noted by tommyb. in the comments, the DNSCrypt .deb file downloads are no longer available. This makes this tutorial currently not usable.

PS: In case you wonder: Yes, it says Ubuntu, but since LinuxMint in its Standard flavors is Ubuntu based, there should not be a major problem. About "Andrew" and "Webup8" he s a well-known internet person and the site is up for long time and in my opinion trustworthy.
